RSS is a data format for the exchange of news and web content. The abbreviation RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. The compilation of information in RSS format is called RSS feed. An RSS feed combines individual news under one topic.
A message is condensed to heading, short introduction and a picture and by means of RSS becomes machine-readable and easy to distribute. RSS feed offers easy access to requested contents without the need to register or provide personal data. The contents and time of data received can be controlled by the user. RSS is independent of the medium. Web browsers, email clients or mobile phones can display RSS feeds.
